Make It Monday #314 - Color Wheel Cards

Hello friends.  This weeks Make It Monday challenge has Lexi Daly showing how to make COLOR WHEEL cards!  You can check out her video and lovely card right HERE.

I didn't stray too far from Lexi's card as I'm a little short on time this week, and also her card is just so darn perfect that I wanted to make one of my own!!  I hadn't had a chance to use my Shape Shifters: Circle die yet, and after seeing Lexi use it for her card, it was also the perfect starting point for my card!  The rest came very easily...I just switched up my flowers to Doodlie-Do!


I did the ROYGBIV thing using Raspberry Fizz (instead of Pure Poppy), Orange Zest, Bright Buttercup, Green Parakeet, Hawaiian Shores, & Amethyst Allure inks with my Aqua Painter after embossing the flowers and leaves in white.  I arranged them around my sentiment (Winter Woods) and then added some True Black Striped Pattern Paper to the bottom of my card and finished with a few iridescent sequins and some black bakers twine.  Easy peasy and a fun little rainbow card!

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

Very bright and colorful Marcia! And I like how you added the stripes at the bottom to coordinate with the stripes in the Shape Shifters Circle. I'm glad you mentioned which set the flowers are from, I need to pull out Doodlie-Do again and use it!

So pretty!! Love the rainbow coloured flowers arranged in the black and white circle. Black always makes the other colours look more vibrant. Great job with this technique, Marcia!! xx

Very striking card, Marcia, and your black stripes and twine really tie it all together. Don’t own Doodlie Do but now I want it. Beautifully done, Marcia!
